Bag om The Non-Juror, A Comedy
The Non-Juror is a comedic play written by Colley Cibber and first performed at the Theater Royal in 1718 by His Majesty's Servants. The play is set in London during the reign of William III and follows the story of a man named Colonel Standard, who is a non-juror, or someone who refuses to swear allegiance to the new king. The play explores the themes of loyalty, politics, and morality, as well as the role of religion in society. The characters are diverse and include a scheming lawyer, a pious clergyman, and a group of rowdy soldiers. The Non-Juror is a satirical take on the political and religious tensions of the time, and is known for its witty dialogue and clever plot twists.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
